Don't kill me for asking another stupid question, but I been a bit too embarrass to ask it before, but what does BTDT mean?

I don't really remember Angie. Try just putting some lotion on it and see if that helps.

Patty, there are no stupid questions here. If you don't know, just ask.

It means been there done that.

In almost every way I would agree with you but because of my job I have come to realize that yes, there are some stupid questions but I'm happy that here there is no such a thing as a stupid question

Get a real thick lotion...it will stay on better and keep you from itching longer. (if you have it you may want to try some massage oil too)

I know that this might not help you now, but I heard from many different people to start rubbing lotion on your belly every night to reduce strch marks. The one that I have seen at the store for strech marks are the ones that have cocoa butter. I just went to walmart and bought a big one.

i suggest a cocoa butter lotion or a body balm. lotion after your shower and any time it feels itchy. i hope that helps!

Apply thick layers and wear something you don't care about. It will stop the itch. Over time they will stop and you won't have to do it.

Yep, I always itched way more AFTER birth than when my skin was actually stretching. I like the Belly Butter by Palmer's. It comes in a tub. Doesn't do a thing for the actual marks, but it does WONDERS for itchy skin!

I really have bad itchy skin every winter, and especially while pregnant and the one lotion that I found that helped was Aveno. Almost any form of aveno, but there is one for dry and itchy skin. I love it, plus they have an oatmeal bath that is great for taking away the itchiness. I hope you find something that works wonders for you!!

Oh and I love your new siggy!! Madison is just beautiful!
